Abstract

A shelving board is used in conjunction with a bracket or rack in a shelving system, for carrying items. The shelving board comprises a board body and a connecting piece. The board body may be a hollow structure or a recessed-and-raised structure, to reduce the material consumption and reduce the cost without affecting the strength. The connecting piece is used to hinder a relative movement between the board body and the rack or between the board body and the bracket, so as to improve the stability of the shelving board. The shelving board may be made by an extrusion process and cut into any length as required. Shelving boards may also be made into prefabricated pieces by an injection molding process, which are spliced into a desired length by means of splicing portions processed on the shelving boards.

       11. The shelving board of  claim 9 , wherein a spacing between an end portion of the first petal and an end portion of the second petal is less than a diameter of the transverse metal wire. 
     
     
       12. A shelving board comprising a board body and connecting pieces, wherein the connecting pieces are configured to be connected to a bracket or a rack so as to hinder a relative movement of the board body relative to the bracket;
 wherein the connecting pieces comprise a head hook portion which is provided at a head of the board body, and the head hook portion is a semi-enclosed structure extending from the head of the board body; 
 wherein the connecting pieces comprise a position-limiting hook which is provided at a tail of the board body, and the position-limiting hook is an arc-shaped hook portion extending downward from the tail of the board body; 
 wherein the connecting pieces are fixedly connected to the board body or are processed and formed integrally with the board body. 
 
     
     
       13. The shelving board of  claim 12 , wherein the head hook portion comprises a first bent portion and a first baffle, and the first baffle is connected to the board body through the first bent portion.
